Even if we document this? I mean:

info("Info message");

Just works. The one place where is wont just work is with:

info("This is an ", Severity.info, " message);

But do we think users will do with this without reading one bit of the
documentation? And even then we can say RTFM ;).

I don't have a strong argument or preference for one over the other.

Thoughts?
